Hi All.
I cycled my tank with Silver Tipped Tetras and once cycled bought Brian, my Bristlenose.
They co-habittted fine for about a month then I bought my pair of Bolivian Rams. After another month, I noticed that Brian had a nip out of his tail. I assumed this was the work of one of the Bolivians (they like his Algae Wafers!) and kept an eye out. I noticed nothing untoward until I went away for a week. Someone came in whilst I was away to feed the fish.
Got back and noticed that a bit more of his fin (rear fin on the fish!) had gone. My girlfriend then noticed that one of the tetras kept diving at his tail whilst Brian was busy stuck to the glass.
Is there anyway to stop this apart from get rid of the tetras?
Cheers
